From 3c3403396f608fba42501fbdcc14177720847f0e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: agenticode <16611333+agenticode@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Wed, 26 Aug 2026 19:28:34 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] feat(reason): read-only tool registry, bounded loop and audit trail for unit 6 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit pkg/reason is the unit-6 core from design §9: a read-only tool registry, the reasoning loop, an audit trail, budget enforcement and injection defence. No SDK, no network, no go.mod change. Provider is an interface; the only implementation in-tree is a test fake. Write-capable tools are not merely unregistered — the type makes them unregisterable, so adding one requires editing Register's predicate in a visible diff. Every string a tool returns is attacker-controlled and is treated as such against an adversarial corpus. The budget bounds the loop, not the individual call: budget exhaustion is a first-class terminal outcome carrying partial evidence, so callers must not infer success from err == nil. airgap_test.go parses the package's own AST to seal its import set rather than tracking a maintained list.

Read-only by construction, and what would defeat it + +Five things hold, in descending order of how much weight they carry: + +1. **No other package can build a `Tool`.** Every field is unexported *and* + the constructor `readOnlyTool` is unexported. `pkg/api`, `cmd/` and a future + `pkg/mcp` cannot put a tool in the registry at all — not a write tool, not a + read tool. The §5.2 surface is enumerated in `tools.go` and nowhere else. +2. **The zero `Tool` is the one value another package can produce, and it is + inert.** `Registry.Register` refuses anything not stamped, which is exactly + the zero value (`TestTheZeroToolCannotBeRegistered`). This mirrors + `pkg/rds`'s `ApprovedStep` deliberately, including the "the zero value is + representable, so pin it at runtime" half. +3. **A tool body's only handle on the world is `Input`.** It carries a + `Reader` — `evidence.Store`'s four query methods, not its `Append` — plus a + sorted subject snapshot and two bound capabilities. `evidence.Sink` is not + reachable from anything a tool receives. +4. **The narrowed store's write method is hostile, not absent.** `roStore` has + to satisfy `evidence.Store` because `evidence.BuildDossier` and + `explain.BuildExplain` take one. Rather than hand either a live writer, the + value they get answers `ErrReadOnly` to `Append`, and its wrapped store is + an unexported field so no type assertion recovers it + (`TestTheNarrowedStoreRefusesToWrite`). +5. **Composite literals are confined by test.** `TestOnlyToolGoConstructsATool` + parses every file in the package and fails if a `Tool{...}` literal appears + outside `tool.go`. Inside the package the type system alone would not stop + `Tool{readOnly: true, run: writeSomething}`. + +### What would defeat it + +- **A closure.** A body compiled inside this package can capture a writer from + its enclosing scope, and no type prevents that. + `TestNoActuatorSymbolIsReachableFromThisPackage` is the cover: it derives the + forbidden identifier set from `pkg/ec2`'s and `pkg/rds`'s own `actuate*.go` + sources (the `cmd/BRAINWIRE-FINDINGS.md` §6 technique), checks three canaries + so an empty scan cannot pass, and fails on both an import of an actuator + package and a named actuation verb. It is a *narrower* check than cmd's, + because this package imports neither actuator package and never should — the + same test fails on the import itself, before it looks at any identifier. +- **Exporting the constructor.** The moment `readOnlyTool` becomes + `ReadOnlyTool`, any package can register a read-only-stamped tool whose body + does whatever it likes. Unit 8's proposal tools are the pressure here; see §7. +- **A `Reader` implementation that writes.** `RegistryConfig.Store` is an + `evidence.Store` supplied by the caller. Nothing stops a caller passing a + store whose `Events` has side effects. This is not a hole a type can close — + the substrate is the caller's — and it is the reason INV-3 (collector-side + allowlist) lives where it does. +- **A tool that returns a `Result` built from something other than what it + read.** `Result` has no exported constructor, so only this package can, but + within the package a tool could cite an ID it fabricated. The loop's + re-resolution (§3) makes that fail closed rather than fail open. + +--- + +## 2. The hostile corpus, and what each entry attacks + +`injection_test.go` carries nine entries. Each is run through three argument +paths — as a `subject_key`, as a tool *name*, and as an undeclared *argument +name* — and, concatenated into one subject name and one set of event +attributes, through `rawStore` as substrate content that reaches the model. + +| Entry | Attacks | Result | +|---|---|---| +| `instructions` | the model's instruction-following: prose shaped like a system message | reaches the model **as data**, inside a JSON string under `data`, labelled untrusted; refused as an argument (not in the universe) | +| `instructions-in-a-refusal` | the refusal path itself — the payload rides out on the error explaining the rejection | refusal carries a code, a field name and a bound, all ours; no free text | +| `ansi-c0` | the operator's terminal, classic `ESC [` | stripped at ingest by `pkg/evidence`; stripped again here | +| `ansi-c1` | the operator's terminal via **U+009B**, the single-byte CSI | **survives `pkg/evidence` ingest** (see §2.1); stripped here | +| `zero-width` | identity: two subjects that render identically | stripped here; subject is still reachable by `subject_index` | +| `bidi-override` | identity: a name that renders as its own reverse | stripped here | +| `valid-json` | the transcript's structure: a name that parses as a message object | arrives as a string field; `TestAJSONShapedNameCannotEscapeItsField` decodes the envelope strictly and finds it still nested | +| `ten-kib` | the context budget and every parser below it | refused as `arguments-too-large` before any parse | +| `budget-raise` | the loop's own accounting, delivered as a tool **result** | budget unmoved; `TestATranscriptCannotRaiseItsOwnBudget` | + +Two whole-run assertions sit on top: +`TestNoHostileByteReachesTheTranscriptThroughAResult` rebuilds everything the +model was shown on the final turn and checks that no 16-byte fragment of any +corpus entry survives; `TestEveryRecordedRefusalDetailComesFromTheTable` checks +that every refusal produced across the corpus has the table's detail, verbatim. + +### 2.1 A measured gap in `pkg/evidence`, not a hypothetical one + +`evidence.cleanString` tests `r < 0x20 || r == 0x7f`. That is C0 and DEL. The +**C1 block (U+0080–U+009F) passes it**, and U+009B is the CSI introducer that +xterm-family terminals honour exactly like `ESC [` — so a workload named +`"2K"` clears the operator's line without ever containing an ESC. +Zero-width (U+200B–U+200F), bidi (U+202A–U+202E, U+2066–U+2069) and the BOM +pass it too. + +This is stated as an observation about the substrate, not a complaint: ingest +sanitization is the load-bearing pass and it does its job. `pkg/reason` closes +the remainder for its own output, because it must also declaw strings that +never went through ingest (an operator's question, a model's answer, a future +bbolt-backed store, a checkpoint restored from an older build). **Closing it in +`pkg/evidence` would be strictly better** and is out of this unit's scope: the +one-line change is in `cleanString`, and it needs `pkg/evidence`'s codec tests +to be re-golden'd because stored bytes would change. + +### 2.2 The anti-echo rule, and where it costs something + +The rule as implemented: **a name is repeated back to the model only if it is +this package's own vocabulary.** + +- `Refusal.Detail` is `refusalDetail[Code]`, a constant. There is no formatting + site where an argument could be interpolated. + `TestOnlyRefusalGoConstructsARefusal` parses the package and fails if a + `Refusal{...}` literal appears outside `refusal.go`. +- `Refusal.Field` is a schema parameter name **this package declared**. For an + *undeclared* argument the field is left empty — the name was chosen by + whoever wrote the call. +- An unregistered tool's name is dropped from both the result envelope and the + transcript message that carries it (`Outcome.known`). This closes three + paths: unknown-tool, over-the-per-turn-cap, and the message's own `tool` + field. +- `Message.Calls` **does** carry the model's raw arguments, because every wire + format needs the assistant's tool-use block replayed. That is not the echo + §5.7 forbids: the rule is that a *result's* bytes never become a subsequent + call's arguments, and the only path from model output to a tool is + `Schema.Validate`. The test excludes that field explicitly and says why. + +What it costs: a model that sends an undeclared argument is told "the schema +declares no such argument" without being told which. This is defensible — the +model holds the schema, and `additionalProperties: false` enumerates every +legal name — but it is a real ergonomic loss and someone will want to undo it. +The audit trail keeps the scrubbed name for the operator, who is not the +attacker's target. + +### 2.3 `subject_index`, which the trap forced + +The corpus produced a design change rather than just a test. Everything shown +to a model is scrubbed, so the key the model reads back from `list_subjects` is +**not** the key the substrate holds when the name carries unsafe runes. +Accepting the scrubbed form would resolve one name to a different object. +Refusing it makes a hostile-named workload permanently uninvestigatable — a +denial of service an attacker arranges with one annotation. + +So subject-taking tools accept `subject_index`: a bounded integer over the same +total order `list_subjects` enumerates. It carries no cluster-authored bytes at +all and can only name a subject the model has already enumerated. `subject_key` +remains for the readable case; supplying both is refused +(`subject-selected-two-ways`). + +--- + +## 3. Citations: re-resolution, handles, and why discarding beats annotating + +Three gates, in order: + +1. **At the source.** A tool declares the IDs its result showed. The explain + tool verifies its payload through `explain.Explanation.Verify` *before* + returning, so a tool never hands a model a citation that does not resolve + (`TestEveryCitationATooLReturnsResolves`). +2. **Session-fetched.** The model cites **handles** (`e1`, `e2`, …), not IDs. + A handle is issued on first appearance and lives in the session ledger. An + unissued handle is not in the ledger and there is no ID to guess, which + makes "the model cannot cite what it did not read" exact rather than + probabilistic (`TestAModelCannotCiteWhatItDidNotRead`). +3. **Re-resolution.** Every handle's ID is resolved again, through + `explain.Resolver`, against the same narrowed substrate the answer was + computed from. Shown-once-gone-now fails here + (`TestACitationThatStopsResolvingDiscardsTheAnswer`). + +Handles exist because an evidence ID **embeds the subject key** — +`evt////@` — and a subject key is a +workload name somebody with kubectl wrote. The citation channel has to survive +a round trip through the model byte-for-byte, which rules out scrubbing it; and +not scrubbing it would hand a rendering exploit to whoever reads the answer. +Handles carry no cluster bytes at all, and cost ~2 tokens per citation. +`Finding.Evidence` carries the real IDs, mapped back after verification, so the +artifact §5.3 specifies is unchanged. +`TestTheModelNeverSeesAnEvidenceIDContainingClusterBytes` pins both halves. + +### Why discard, not annotate + +The tempting alternative is to publish with "3 of 7 citations could not be +verified" attached. It fails for reasons that have nothing to do with models: +an annotation is a *second* thing to read and the answer is the first. A +platform engineer forwards the paragraph to an app team and the annotation does +not travel with it. A dashboard renders the answer in a card and the warning in +a tooltip. A summary quotes the conclusion. + +Worse, the annotation is most likely to be ignored in exactly the case it +matters: a confident, fluent, well-structured answer whose citations happen not +to resolve is what a *successful* injection produces. Publishing it with a +caveat converts a structural defense into a UX one, and §5.7 puts +presentation-level defenses last for that reason. + +So `Finding.Answer` is emptied, `Outcome` becomes `discarded`, and the audit +records the counts and the digests of the rejected citations. An uncited answer +is discarded too, by default (`Config.AllowUncitedAnswer` exists, defaults +false, and the doc comment says to write down who turned it on). + +--- + +## 4. Budgets: the terminal states + +Exhaustion is neither a success nor an error. `Investigator.Run` returns an +error **only** when the investigation could not start — no provider, or a +malformed question. Everything else is a state on the finding: + +| `Finding.Outcome` | Partial | `Answer` | Meaning | +|---|---|---|---| +| `answered` | no | set | the only publishable state | +| `turn-limit` | **yes** | empty | hit `MaxTurns`; the evidence read so far is reported, resolved | +| `budget-exhausted-tokens` | **yes** | empty | could not fund another turn | +| `budget-exhausted-usd` | **yes** | empty | priced budget spent | +| `discarded` | no | empty | an answer arrived and was thrown away; nothing partial about it | +| `malformed-finding` | no | empty | not a finding, or stopped without producing one | +| `provider-failed` | no | empty | the model server failed; every deterministic answer is unaffected | + +The budget bounds the **loop**, three ways: the accounting is cumulative; +`spend.exhausted()` is checked *before* a turn is spent, not after; and the +per-turn cap handed to the provider is `min(MaxOutputTokensPerTurn, remaining)` +— `TestTheTurnCapIsLoweredToWhatRemains` asserts it falls monotonically. A +per-call cap the caller cannot lower is a speed limit, not a budget. + +Partial work is reported as partial: `Finding.Evidence` and `Citations` carry +everything the session actually read, re-resolved, so the operator gets the +same grounded material the model had. `Finding.Notes` says why it stopped +(constants, never substrate text). Cost is in **micro-USD integers**, priced as +`tokens × USDPerMillion`, so two replays compare byte-for-byte. + +Per-turn fan-out is capped separately and the extras are **refused, not +dropped**: twelve calls against a cap of four produce four results and eight +recorded refusals (`TestAFanOutTurnIsCappedAndTheExtrasAreRefusedNotDropped`). + +--- + +## 5. Determinism seams + +The same scripted transcript produces a **byte-identical** audit trail +(`TestAScriptedTranscriptProducesAByteIdenticalAuditTrail`, four runs). + +- **`Clock`** is the only way this package learns the time — `pkg/whatif`'s + idiom, including "a nil Clock is refused at the entry point, never defaulted + to `time.Now`". `New` fails without one. +- **No durations are recorded.** A tool's elapsed time is real and varies; + recording it would put a stopwatch reading in a hash chain. +- **The one wall-clock read** in the package is the per-tool + `context.WithTimeout` deadline. It bounds work and is never recorded. +- **Nothing is emitted from a map range.** Args are recorded as sorted + key/value pairs (`sortedKV`), citations are sorted (`dedupeCites`), tools are + in name order, and `scrubJSON` rebuilds documents through `map[string]any` + precisely because `encoding/json` sorts map keys on the way out. +- **`scrubJSON` uses `json.Number`**, so `123456789012345678` does not become + `123456789012345680` on the way through. +- **Post-scrub key collisions** resolve by a total rule (keep the + lexicographically smaller encoding), not by whichever the map yielded first. +- **The seed context is a function of the candidate *set*.** Ranking is score + descending, then `(cluster, kind, key)` ascending — total, so no two distinct + candidates compare equal. 50,000 candidates and a deterministic permutation + of the same 50,000 produce identical bytes; selection is a bounded insert, + 2.3 ms on an M4 (`BenchmarkSeedAtFiftyThousand`). +- **The trail is hash-chained.** Each record hashes itself with its own `Hash` + field empty, plus the previous record's hash. Rewriting the question after + the fact — the single most useful edit for somebody covering their tracks — + fails `Verify` (`TestTamperingWithTheAuditTrailIsEvident`). +- **Versions are pinned** into the opening record and the finding: + `RegistryVersion`, `PromptVersion`, the model and provider names, the system + prompt's digest, the seed's digest, and `Registry.Digest()` — a hash of every + tool name, description and schema, so a replay can distinguish "the model + behaved differently" from "the model was offered a different surface". + +--- + +## 6.

Take it once, per investigation. +2. **`Seed` is the deterministic engine's ranking**, not this package's. + `Candidate.Score` should be §5.4's `max(savingsUSD, riskScore, anomalyScore)` + for the question kind. `pkg/reason` ranks what it is given and computes no + number of its own — inventing one here would be the exact inversion §1.2 + forbids. +3. **Persisting the trail.** `Audit.Encode` produces the bytes; the bucket, the + retention budget and the `GET /api/v1/clusters/{id}/investigations` route + are `pkg/api`'s. + +For §6's MCP frontend: mount `Registry.Tools()` as `tools/list` (the +descriptors are 1:1 with MCP's shape, `input_schema` included) and +`Registry.Run` as `tools/call`, rendering `Outcome.JSON()` — which uses **real +evidence IDs** rather than session handles, because an MCP client holds its own +session and can resolve them. `Registry.Digest()` is the version for +`tools/list` metadata. The registry needs no provider, which is §5.9's subtle +row: MCP serves the deterministic tools with no model configured at all. + +--- + +## 7. What this unit did NOT build, in priority order + +1. **Any `Provider` implementation.** Deliberate and load-bearing: it is the + air-gap invariant. An `anthropic` organ belongs in its own package + (`pkg/reason/anthropic`, or an organ repo) importing this one, so + `go list -deps ./pkg/reason/` stays stdlib + intra-repo. When it lands, the + one contract worth restating: **a provider that cannot report token usage + must report an estimate, never zero** — a zero-usage provider makes the + loop's budget unenforceable, which is the single failure a cost optimizer + cannot ship. +2. **Nine of §5.2's read-only tools.** `list_clusters`, + `get_cluster_summary`, `get_plan`/`get_plan_step`, `get_ledger`, + `cost_attribution`, `run_whatif`, `run_backtest`, `get_pricing`, + `get_calendar`. Each needs data from a package *above* this one, and the + shape to use is the `Reader` pattern — a narrow read interface this package + declares and `pkg/api` implements — **not** an exported registration hook. + Exporting the tool constructor would end the by-construction argument in §1. + `cost_attribution` is the cheapest and highest-value next one: + `explain.WhyCost` is already an intra-repo import away, it is entirely + deterministic, and §1.3(b) makes it the flagship narration case. +3. **`search_workloads` as §5.2 specifies it.** What shipped is + `list_subjects`: cluster, kind, key-prefix, limit, offset, stable + pagination. It has no `class`, `minCostUSD`, `hasRefusal` or `sort`, because + those live in `pkg/recommend`/`pkg/decision` output that the substrate does + not hold. Same fix as (2). +4. **Per-identity quotas and the global daily USD cap** (§5.7 item 5, §5.8). + `Budget` bounds one investigation. `Question.Initiator` is recorded but + nothing rate-limits on it, and there is no cross-investigation ledger. That + belongs beside `pkg/api`'s token store, with the two Prometheus metrics §5.7 + asks for. +5. **Prompt caching markers** (§5.4). The prefix is stable by construction — + `SystemPrompt` is a constant, the scope header is derived, and the tool + block is name-sorted, `TestTheEmittedSchemaIsStrictAndStable` pins schema + stability — but nothing marks a cache breakpoint, because that is a + provider-wire concept and there is no provider here. +6. **`propose_policy_change` / `propose_annotation_change`** (unit 8). Not + mine, and admitting them needs a *visible* change here: + `Registry.Register` refuses anything not stamped read-only, so a proposal + tool means editing that predicate and `tool.go`'s stamp, in a diff a + reviewer sees. Do not relax it into a `Capability` enum with a + `CapabilityPropose` member and no other change — the point of the stamp is + that widening it is conspicuous. +7. **Cross-investigation memory** (§5.4 item 3). Investigations are stateless + case files, as specified. The operator-curated path (`evidence.Kind = + "finding"` events pinned on a subject) needs a writer, and the writer must + not be reachable from a tool — it is an operator action through `pkg/api`, + not a model action. +8. **A `Store`-backed `Subjects()`.** `RegistryConfig.Subjects` takes a + snapshot because `evidence.Store` has no enumeration method (`*Memory` does, + the interface does not).
